opening it. Failure to do so may cause
the trunk lid to suddenly shut again
after it is opened.
When opening or closing the trunk lid,
thoroughly check to make sure the
surrounding area is safe.
If anyone is in the vicinity, make sure
they are safe and let them know that
the trunk is about to open or close.
Use caution when opening or closing
